What capacity building and life skills involves

Capacity building is personalised support to build practical life skills, confidence and independence: cooking your own meals, catching public transport alone, budgeting, shopping, using technology, preparing for work, or getting ready for Supported Independent Living.

We work at your pace, in your own home and community: learn, practise, build confidence, then do more independently. It's funded from the Capacity Building budget in your plan, which the NDIA sets.

What's included

  • Cooking and meal planning
  • Travel skills and public transport
  • Shopping and budgeting
  • Work and study readiness
  • Everyday technology
  • Preparing for SIL

Capacity building and life skills around Granville

Granville is a Western Sydney suburb about 18 km west of the Sydney CBD, split between Cumberland City Council and the City of Parramatta. The Duck River forms its eastern boundary with Auburn, Parramatta Road passes through, and it neighbours Harris Park, Merrylands, Clyde and South Granville.

Skills are easiest to learn where you'll use them, so capacity building in Granville happens in your own home and around your own suburb.

For travel goals, that can mean practising the trip from Granville station (T1 North Shore & Western Line; T2 Leppington & Inner West Line) together until it's just something you do.

Questions

Capacity building and life skills in Granville: common questions

Can you help me learn to catch the train from Granville?

Yes. Travel training usually means doing the same trip together — from Granville to somewhere you go regularly — until you're confident doing it alone.

Do you provide capacity building support in Granville?

Yes. We support people in Granville 2142 and nearby suburbs such as Harris Park, Auburn and Guildford. Which worker can help, and when, depends on the days and times you need, so tell us your suburb and routine when you enquire and we'll confirm what we can arrange.

How is capacity building different from daily living support?

Daily living support helps with tasks as they happen. Capacity building helps you learn to do them yourself, so the help you need changes over time.

Does it need to be in my plan?

Yes — it's funded from the Capacity Building budget. If a skill you want to build isn't in your plan, raise it at your plan review.
